Two-fifths of the students do NOT want pizza for lunch. Thus what is two-fifths of 1065? There are a couple of ways to answer the question from here. The easiest would be to multiply two-fifths by 1065.

1065 divided by 5 = 213
213 X 3 = 639
639 students want pizza for lunch

(3 / 5) x 1065 = 3 x 213 = 639
1065 - 639 = 426
426 do not want pizza.

its 2/5
when the numerator is same as denominator its =1 or 100%
so if its 3/5 want pizza then 2/5 dont want it
its 2/5 b/c when you add 3/5 and 2/5 its 5/5 which makes the whole entire student body and its 426 tht dont want pizza

Yeah, right!!! Who WOULDN'T want pizza for lunch???!!?
426 students suck because they don't want pizza (they probably want something stupid like salads or something!)
1065 divided by 5 = 213
213 x 2 = 426

Here are your factors.
3/5 - Students who do.
2/5 - Students who don't.
1065 - Total students.
It's a common ratio problem. Can you figure it out with those named factors?
